Media Montage Podcast 107: Fan Theories



Was Doc Brown actually trying to kill himself in Back to the Future? Is everyone in Westoros the bad guy, EXCEPT the White Walkers? Do District 9 and Chappie take place in the distant past of the Halo universe?  Bruce and Larry examine the evidence and discuss fan theories. 

Fan Theories, the practice of taking evidence presented in pop culture to predict future outcomes of stories, to examine motivations for characters, or make a mediocre story a little better.

Why do fans like to speculate? Why do we try to add to existing narratives?  Why do we share in the world building by creating elaborate fan theories? They ask that and more in Episode 107 of the Media Montage Podcast!
